Guardian Angels Every little boy and girl has a Guardian Angel at his side. "Take care of my son and my daughter," God commands. And the Angels obey. We are never without them. If the night is dark, they are at our side. If we feel afraid, we can pray to our Guardian Angels, knowing they will protect us. Isn't it wonderful to know this? We are never alone. We always have a powerful friend and protector who is taking care of us. They see everything we do. They hear everything we say. They go every place we go. They are with us when we play. They are at our side when we eat. They stand at our bed when we sleep. They hear our prayer and protect us from evil and danger and sin. Since our Angels are always at our side we must always make our Guardian Angel: Glad with everything we do; Glad with everything we say; Glad with everything we think. ANGEL LEAD ME TO JESUS Dear Angel ever at my side I pray that I may e'er abide Within the sight of our Dear Lord, That's all I ask for a reward. To walk with Him along His way That He has trod for me, To talk with Him and hear Him say That He is pleased to see A child like me with an Angel bright Ever near at hand. A messenger from the Heavenly land To guide my steps aright. |
